trq Posted September 24, 2010 Share Posted September 24, 2010 The page you have linked to gives a 500 error, which is a misconfigred server. The additional 404 is because your 'nice' error page is also missing. You need to explain exactly what it is you did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
priscilla80 Posted September 24, 2010 Author Share Posted September 24, 2010 Ok here i go: I have a forum on my ftp with a portal page. I wanted to instal a free phpbb chat on the site. (not on he forum or portal page) but in my main site: in my public_html i uploaded a folder call cha and uploaded the content that was in the zipfolder i dwnloaded. Then in the install instructions it said chmod it to 777. I did that and when i wanted to reply to a forum post in the mean while. i got that error. So i got scared.. and deleted the whole chat folder. My forum is in another folder. and there is also my portal page. So since i deleted the chat folder its still same error message. hope you understand,. and thanks for your help ! The page you have linked to gives a 500 error, which is a misconfigred server. The additional 404 is because your 'nice' error page is also missing. You need to explain exactly what it is you did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trq Posted September 24, 2010 Share Posted September 24, 2010 The steps you have described couldn't possibly cause the error, if that is indeed what you have done. What are the permissions (including owner / group) on the files & directories within your public_html directory now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
